Christian PoetryPoems by Revathi Selwyn

Revathi writes: "I came to know Jesus in a meeting. He is the only one God who died for me, no one else did. There is salvation for all men in Him. I am thankful for God's gift of grace to me. Jesus Christ is my Lord and my Saviour."

Jesus By Revathi Selwyn

Walking amidst Seven Golden Lamp standsOne like the Son of ManGirded with a Golden BandHead and hair White as WoolEyes a Flame of FireFace that of the Sunin all its Strengthin all its Strength

Jesus the Almighty oneJesus the Almighty onethe First and the LastRoot & offspring of DavidThe beginning and the End

Jesus slain and now RisenJesus who isJesus who wasJesus who is to comeJesus...His Bloodredeeming peoplefrom every nation and tribe

Jesus the Almighty oneJesus the Almighty onethe First and the LastRoot and offspring of DavidThe beginning and the End

When I walked aloneThrough
sands of timeI was
never really alone I was
never aloneJesus, You were always thereyou
were always thereBy me,Surrounding
me withWarmth
from aboveWhispering
promises of love

Promises
and sweet whispersOf love,That
you would never leave menor
forsake meEven
to the ends of the worldYou
are always thereJesus,
always there,Always there, Jesus,

When I wandered through wildernessand
days, months and years just flew by I was
weary and thirsty,Yet,you kept me as the apple of your eyeYou
quenched me with your spiritAnd
You held me closeAnd
whispered into my soulPromises
of lovePromises and

and sweet whispers Of
love, That you
would never leave me, nor forsake meYou
would never leave me nor forsake me Sweet
promises to hold Even
to the ends of the worldYou

for me

There are many ways that seem so goodyet only one true narrow waymany namesyet only one Nameby which man be savedthe one Name above all namesthe Name of Jesus,the Son of God,Gift upon the crosssalvation for every nation from a land a faraway land called Galilee

I was toldin a far away landGalilee...hung upon the cross A man called Jesusin His bloodthere is forgiveness for me,Bruised and beatenJesus, buried in a caveSon of Goddeath could not hold Himrose from the graveand because of what He did at Calvarybecause of Him I have victory....

I believe He bled, He died for me,I believe in His cleansing powerand I know that He bledand He died for mehow His blood holds such power over two thousand yearsis a mystery...and every hourof my life, I knowin Him is my victory

His blood shed for you and me, His blood...still has victory just as the wind blowsand no one knowswhence it comes and whither it goesI just do not know the mysteryI know I am born againSomething new within me new and free

And now I just cant be...meHis love, joy, peaceOverwhelm me... I have to tell of the cleansing powerIn the Nameof a man called Jesusfrom this far away landa land called GalileeNailed upon CalvaryGods mysteryGift of salvationfor every nationFrom a faraway land A land called Galilee.
